Performance Management Plan Revision 

 This document presents the changes to the project results framework, Performance Management Plan  Indicators  and  all  Performance  Indicator  Reference  Sheets  including  baseline  data  and targets. This is the first revision of the Performance Management Plan (PMP) for the Iraq Financial Sector Development  Project  (USAID  Contract No.  267‐C‐00‐10‐00005‐00)  submitted  on October 19, 2011.   Future  revisions will be made at a minimum annually, and/or as knowledge  is gained throughout  the  life  of  the project.  The M&E  department  of  the  Financial Development  Project adheres  to  the mandatory and non‐mandatory  requirements, guidance and  instruction  found  in USAID  ADS  Chapter  203  “Assessing  and  Learning.”    Using  a  range  of  pre‐selected  indicators performance monitoring  will  continuously measure  the  progress  toward  achieving  contractual intermediate results, at all levels, for all component/elements of the program.   Objective Performance evaluations will be conducted on a periodic basis to “identify reasons for success or lack of it, to assess effects and impacts, or to indicate which, among a range of program or  project/activity  alternatives  is  the most  efficient  and  effective”1  in  a manner  that will  allow timely  adjustments  to  be made  when  necessary  based  on  lessons  learned. More  specifically, performance evaluations will focus on the following:  1) what is being or has been achieved (either at an intermediate point in execution or at the conclusion of an implementation period); 2) how it is  being  implemented;  3)  how  it  is  perceived  and  valued;  4)  whether  expected  results  are occurring;  5)  any  other  questions  that  are  pertinent  to  program  design,  management  and operational decision making. Twice a month, Component leaders will meet with PMU/M&E staff to review  progress  towards  meeting  deliverables  and  achieving  measurable  PMP  outputs.  As measurable progress  is  achieved,  component  staff will provide  evidential documentation which will  be  stored  in  program‐wide  data  monitoring  files  and/or  OneSource.  Hard  copies  of  all deliverables will also be cataloged and stored in locked file cabinets in the M&E office. All Data will be reviewed on a quarterly basis to ensure that all project and staff reports and spreadsheets are 100% accurate. Sector  indicators will be  reviewed by Senior Management quarterly or as macro economic data become available.

Indicator Title:Loans from Private Banks to the Private Sector as a % of all loans to the private sector by thecommercial banking sector

Precise Definition(s):

Loans from Private Banks to the Private Sector as a % of all loans to the private sector by the commercial banking sector is calculated using the formula: Total Credit Extended by Private Banks to the Private Sector / Total Credit Extended by all Commercial Banks to the Private Sector.

Unit of Measure: Percent

Disaggregated by: none

type: ouput/outcome Outcome

Direction of Change: Higher = Better

Rationale:

This is a disaggregated indicator that shows the contribution that the private banking sector makes to the primary indicator by excluding the state owned banks. I low value signifies that private banks are not lending; have little influence in the credit markets due to size; or, both. Values above 50% is a sign that private banks are lending more than state banks and play a larger role in providing credit to the private sector. This disaggregated Indicator also provides a secondary reference to the contribution the private banks make to other credit indicators.

Initial Baseline data is calculated using data from the 2009 CBI Annual Report. Baseline data and targets for yr 1-5 will be updated when 2010 data is available. Initial data has been updated with 2010 data. While the increase in loans from the private banks to the private sector has increased, the GDP data has increased at a higher rate causing this indicator to decline from 2009 to 2010, 41.5% down to 33.8%. This represents a direct change of -7.7% or a rate of change of -26.5% from 2009.

Indicator Title: Interest Rate Spread (%)

Precise Definition(s):Interest Rate Spread = Average Loan Interest Charged to best customers by commerical banks - Average Interest Rate Paid on Deposits by Commerical Banks

Unit of Measure: Percent

Disaggregated by: none

type: ouput/outcome Outcome

Direction of Change: Lower = Better

Rationale:

The interest rate spread is the difference between the average interest rate on loans to prime customers and the average interest rate on deposits in the banking system. This indicator reflects the combined effects of five factors: innate lending risks due to structural characteristics of the economy; the cost of bad debts due to poor lending decisions, perhaps resulting from political pressures or corruption; uncertainty due to weak credit information systems or collateral mechanisms; market power in the banking system, reflecting a lack of effective competition in the financial markets; and, high operating costs in intermediating deposits into loans. Relatively high values are a sign of inefficiency in the banking system or poor institutional foundations for the development of the financial markets.

Using economic expertise, Targets are based on reasonably gradual shifts of areas of high concentration of credit to eonomically productive, though low areas of concentration of credit. (see attached worksheet). Iraq is not expected to reach the level of low-risk diversification in more developed countries such as Jordan or the USA within the five years of the project; however, a reasonable, gradual shift from areas of high concentration to areas less served should be observed. 2010 baseline data has been incorporated to update the baseline for the project

Expected Result #

N/AExpected Result Per Contract

Precise Definition(s):

The Central Bank of Iraq reports credit from the commercial banks (State and Private) seggreated by 10 economic sectors: Agriculture; Building/Construction; Electricity; External Credit; Finance/Ins/RE/Business Services; Manufacturing, Mining/Quarries; Social Services; Transportation/communication/storage; and, Wholesale/retail/trade/hotels. This indicator is the standard diviation of % of total credit distibuted to each of these sectors. (See attached baseline and target estimate worksheets.)

Unit of Measure: Standard Deviation (expressed as a %)

Disaggregated by: none

type: ouput/outcome output

Direction of Change: lower = better

Rationale:

In a more robust and diversified banking sector such as Jordan or in the USA, concentration of credit is a more evenly divided. Therefore, This indicator reveals the existance of any concentration of credit in Iraq. High concentrations of credit in a particular sector subject the Private Baking sub-sector to the risks associated to the particular sector where the credit is concentrated. (i.e. high concentrations of credit in the agriculture sector subject lenders to the same risks such as crop loss from weather, disease and insects and market price risks). A High standard deviation signals the existance of a concentration of credit, high risk. A low standard deviation indicates less concentration, lower risk. Through training and education and improvement in collections/risk management as well as external improvements like electricity, security and infrastructure this distribution should level out and become less concentrated.

DATA QUALITY ISSUES (if used in USAID Annual Report)TBD

Banks will always make operations and lending policy decisions on what their individual governance systems percieve as their own best interest. The interventions of the program are external to those loan decision making processes of individual banks, which gives the program limited influence on this indicator. Putting in place a Credit Bureau and improving data communications should have a profound affect on how individual banks make future lendingand operational decisions but there is no guarantee this will, in fact, happen. Annual fluctuations in the increases in both deposits and loans will have positive and negative effects year on year but the long term trend should remain positive.

Management will monitor both the numerator and denominator separately as well as the ratio. This indicator is not 100% directly attributable to the project's contractual objective. However, This indicator does provide proof of development hypothosis and must be monitored for the project's interventions should positively affect both the numerator and the denominator.

Rationale:

Loans to the private sector as a percent of private sector deposits of the Commercial Banking sector (Loan to Deposit Ratio) is a very strong indicator that reflects the actual financial intermediation (converting deposits to loans) that is taking place in the Commercial Banking sector. In western, developed countries a loan to deposit ratio of 65-70% is considered an acceptable level. A low loan to deposit ratio relative to regional or international benchmarks directly correlates to ineffective financial intermediation.

Notes on baselines/Targets:

Initial Baseline data will be calculated using the 2009 CBI Annual report. Baseline data and targets for yr 1-5 will be updated when 2010 data is available. Targets in Yr 1-5 assume that interventions will increase at a natural progression (5.28% from 2008-2009, 5.66% 2009-2010) of 6% per year. NOTE: the baseline for this indicator has changed to reflect the incorporated updated 2010 data. Also, it should be noted that as of 2010, CBI data now disaggregates deposit information by State and Private banks, making it possible to modify this indicator to show ONLY the Loan to Deposit ratio using ONLY Private Bank Deposits in the Denominator. Modifying this indicator would show a significant (and more accurate assessement) change in this inidcator. The L/D ratio for the Private Banking Sector for 2010 is 53.7%, rather than 20.86% using ONLY private sector loans at private banks divided by private sector deposits with Private Banks.

No viable bankers association is being supported by the project at the startup, therefore the b aseline is 0. Furthermore, only one "association" will be supported by the project. The Decision to expand to other provinces will be based on feasibility analysis by the Federation of Private banks rather than with the project. Therefore, no branch targets will be measured by this indicator..

in year one, the owners of the Federation of Private Banks invested $1.1 million USD to use for all operating purposes. This level of funding provides for more than 6 x the planned operating budget. However, this ratio will need to be montiored over the life of the projectto determine the perpetual sustainability of the Federation. Nevertheless, this investment by the private banks represents a significant event and support by project beneficiaries.

Long Term Objective

Precise Definition(s):

Financial sustainability is the degree to which an organization collects sufficient revenues from sale of its services to cover the full costs of its activities, evaluated on an opportunity-cost basis. Expressed as a percentage, financial sustainablity is calculated using the formula: (operational cost + financial costs) / gross revenue. Full financial sustainability is the situation in which the revenues an organization generates from its clients cover the full (opportunity) costs of its activities,thus allowing it to continue operating at a stable or growing scale without ongoing support from governments, donor agencies, or charitable organizations.

Kathy Walsh

Rationale:

For the purpose of this indicator, "Member" is defined as institutional owner of the Federation of Private Banks, LLC. Member satisfaction as measured by their participation in the General Assembly meetings demonstrates that owner's satisfaction with the work of the organization remains high. There will be instances where owners will disagree with one another on issues, but their collective participation in the decision making process of the company/Federation is an accurate reflection of their continuing satisfaction with the work and operations of the company.

Data Source: General Assembly meeting minutes

Method of data acquisition: project staff will record attendence from minutes provided by the Federation

Data Acquisition Freq & Reporting: Data will be aquired from each meeting and reported quarterly, then averaged annually.

Unit of Measure: percentage

Disaggregated by: none

type: output/outcome: Output

One or more industry associations that represents effectively the interests of the private financial sector and is self-sustainable, as measured by financial sustainability and member involvement and satisfaction.

Indicator Title: Overall Owner Satisfaction with the Federation of Private Banks

Precise Definition(s):

Owner satisfaction is measured by the continuing participation in the decision making processes of the General Assembly meetings. Satisfaction will be measured by the aggregate quarterly percentage of owners who attend the General Assembly meetings. The formula that will be used to calculate this percentage is: the accumulative average number of owners present at each meeting during the quarter divided by the number of General Assembly meetings during the quarter. Example: at meeting 1 there are 10 owners represented at the meeting and at that time there are 13 owners, the average for the meeting is 77%. At the second meeting, there are 2 new owners and each send a representative to the meeting, making the attendance average 12/15, or 80%. there are two more meetings during the quarter with attendance average of 80% and 85%. The quarterly average would then be: (77% + 80% + 80% + 85%) / 4 meetings = 80.5%.

Disaggregated by:

Rationale:

The purpose of this indicator is to measure progress toward identifying reforms and that the process to initiate them has begun. Unique indicators will be assigned to each reform that has been identified under this indicator and will be tracked separately. I should be noted that though the initial target is 4-5 reforms, opportunities to increase targets are envisioned. If these opportunities become viable, the targets for this indicator will be adjusted accordingly. As a means to expedite the long process of reform, It is expected that necessary reforms will be identified and efforts will be initiated during the process of association formation through a series of bankers working sessions. Once identified, each reform will be assigned a new PMP Indicator with its own unique milestones following the guidance of TIPS 14, monitoring the Policy and Reform Process.

Precise Definition(s):

The pricise definition of indicators 1.5.1-1.5.5 will be determined when a targeted reform is identified and a decision is made by the Private Bankers Association (or other groups supported by the project) and a unique PIRS for each individual reform will be created. The indicator definition will depend on the type of reform that is targeted as well as the specific approach that is most appropriate to monitor the unique reform process. Definition and rationale for this indicator will follow the guidelines and recommendations contained in TIPS 14: Monitoring the Policy and Reform Process .

Rationale:

The core of financial intermediation is risk management. Any institution that serves to reduce market lending risks and loan recovery enables lenders to expand their lending to weaker clients, opening access to credit and lowering the cost of credit. Expanding access to credit enables economic factors to leverage their own resources and expand their economic activity, contributing to improved economic growth

In the event fluctuating fees are evident, it may become necessary to adjust targets or establish constants for the purpose of calculating shared operational cost coverage. Also, if the sector share between the private banks and state-owned banks changes targets will necessarily need to be revised accordingly.

Individual responsible for data collection: Bob Viernum/David Munro

Rationale:

The BTI is a quasi-government institution established by Law # 36/ 1999 which means that operational costs will be covered by the government and by private bank user fees. Assuming that user fee scales will remain constant during the life of the program, a trend of higher percentage of costs being covered by private bank user fees over time will indicate that the institution has increasing value to the commercial private banks because more of their employees, staff and managers are participating in its programs, indicating a reasonably sustainable quasi-governmental institution. It is estimated that state banks comprise approximately 85% of the commercial banking sector. Therefore, If user fees paid by state banks rise to 15% of operating costs, this would indicate a 15/85 share of costs of all stakeholders, suggesting that the institution sustainability is equitably shared between the private sector and government.

Rationale:

A typical bank lending officer in a developed market will have an MBA or accounting degree, followed by up to five years of mentoring by experienced senior lenders before (s)he is qualified to assume any significant lending authority. In most developing countries, the education system does not provide a comparable base, and senior lenders often do not themselves have the technical skills to teach. Other financial sector specialists require a similar extensive learning curve before they can be reliable practitioners. Training programs that compensate for these gaps in skills development opportunities can substantially accelerate the rate at which a country can form the professionals needed to expand the economy

Rationale:

Program Area

The core of financial intermediation is risk management. Any institution that serves to reduce market lending risks and loan recovery enables lenders to expand their lending to weaker clients, opening access to credit and lowering the cost of credit. Expanding access to credit enables economic factors to leverage their own resources and expand their economic activity, contributing to improved economic growth

Rationale:

Global interconnected growth is accelerating in all countries of the world. It is vital that entering financial sector professionals possess up to date knowlege of finance and banking from a program and recognized by providers as meeting internationally recognized standards. Entering finance professionals equipped with up to date knowledge of finance theory and practice increase confidence among investing and trading institutions, facilitate investment and increase the volume of financial transactions, increase access to finance amoung sub-sectors of the economy, increase confidence among investing and trading counterparts and spur innovation, among many other benefits.

Disaggregated by: gender (3.1.2a men/3.1.2b women)

Rationale:

A typical bank lending officer in a developed market will have an MBA or accounting degree, followed by up to five years of mentoring by experienced senior lenders before she/he is qualifed to assume any significant lending authority. The iraqi education system does not provide a comparable base, and sendior lenders often do not themselves have the technical skills to teach. Other financial sector specialists require a similar extensive learning curve before they can be reliable practitioners. Degree programs that meet international standards can compensate for these gaps in skills development opportunites can substantially accelerate the rate at which a country can form the professionals needed to grow the financial sector.

Rationale:

Accreditation by an internationally recognized body ensures an independent confirmation of quality of the program. Hence, encouraging Iraqi Colleges of Economics and Administration to seek accreditation with ACCSB (the premier accrediation body in the world) and facilitating the process is an important part of the Program. However, accreditation by AACSB is a highly elaborate and long process requiring understanding of complex procedures and financial viability. Hence, the need for a full-fledged training workshop. The Component Lead was fortunate in making AACSB visit the region and offer a training workshop on accreditation in collaboration with a recently AASCB-accredited Partner University.

Indicator Title: Educators' Association Financial Sustainability

Precise Definition(s):

Financial sustainability is the degree to which an organization collects sufficient revenues from sale of its services to cover the full costs of its activities, evaluated on an opportunity-cost basis. Expressed as a percentage, financial sustainablity is calculated using the formula: (operational cost + financial costs) / gross revenue. Full financial sustainability is the situation in which the revenues an organization generates from its clients cover the full (opportunity) costs of its activities, thus allowing it to continue operating at a stable or growing scale without ongoing support from governments, donor agencies, or charitable organizations.
